The world’s second-largest technology solutions provider (behind only CDW) has grown rapidly to occupy the same position in the UK.
Having first opened a London office in 2012, the $20bn-revenue, Missouri-headquartered goliath saw its calendar 2024 top line here balloon by more than 60% to $3.192bn (£2.55bn), according to numbers it broke out for us. Its tally for the wider EMEA region topped $5bn.
While others were pulling party poppers, WWT saw in the new year by announcing its first acquisition in a decade – and it was a biggie. Purchasing $2.2bn-sales, Canada-based software reseller Softchoice will bolster its software, cloud, cybersecurity and AI offerings, CEO Jim Kavanaugh claimed.
WWT in August built on its eight-year pact with NVIDIA by announcing it will bring NVIDIA Blueprints to its global clients through its ‘AI Proving Ground’. The GPU giant is one of nine strategic vendors for WWT alongside Cisco, Dell, HPE, NetApp, F5, Intel, Microsoft and Palo Alto Networks.
Oxygen ice-breaker
WWT in September announced a sponsorship deal that will see UK golfer Luke Donald sport its logo on his visor.
